Title: Systems and methods for encoder-guided adaptive-quality rendering
Inventor: MICHAEL KOPIETZ
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 2018-04-20
Abstract: Systems and methods for improving computer technology related to the rendering and encoding of images are disclosed, preferably for use in a video-game environment. In certain embodiments, a codec is used to encode one or more reference images for a partial range of encoder settings and a renderer is used to generate one or more rendering quality-settings profiles, generate one or more reference images, calculate perceived qualities for each of the one or more reference images, re-render the one or more reference images for each of the one or more rendering quality setting profiles, and calculate perceived qualities for each of the one or more re-rendered reference images. The renderer compares the perceived qualities of the reference images to the perceived qualities of the re-rendered images and matches them. Those matches result in an association of one or more encoder settings with their matching rendering quality-settings profiles into a look-up table. The invention defined in this application involves reading a quantisation parameter, comparing the quantisation parameter to effective quantisation settings associated with a previously rendered frame, changing the rendering quality to match the effective quantisation settings depending on the results of said comparison and generating a rendered image based on the altered rendering quality.
